Foodborne mycotoxins (FBMTs) are toxins produced by food itself or during processing and transportation that pose an enormous threat to public health security. However, traditional instrumental and chemical methods for detecting toxins have shortcomings, such as high operational difficulty, time consumption, and high cost, that limit their large-scale applications. In recent years, aptamer-based biosensors have become a new tool for food safety risk assessment and monitoring due to their high affinity, good specificity, and fast response. In this review, we focus on the progress of single-mode and dual-mode aptasensors in basic research and device applications over recent years. Furthermore, we also point out some problems in the current detection strategies, with the aim of stimulating future toxin detection systems for a transition toward ease of operation and rapid detection.
